Phone doesn't recognize my home WiFi network - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

I did a reboot/factory restore on my wireless router couple of days ago and ever since that my phone barely connects to my home wireless network. It keeps saying Network out of range even though I'm right next to the router. Finally after 20+ minutes of waiting, it finds it.
I tried "forget network" and add it back but it's still happening. I got the 'Fix my WiFi" app and no luck. I also tried rebooting. Haven't tried factory reset but I may if this keeps happening.
Is there something wrong with my router settings maybe? My laptop connects fine though.
I think there might be something wrong in this settings for the router.

I had a problem where my WiFi didn't work and had to flash all the away back to 2 variations of stock via Odin. I'm not sure what went wrong, but it probably isn't a problem with your hardware.

Did you wipe Davlik (sp) cache in recovery to see if it fixes the problem?

did you try changing the wireless channel on the router?

Turn on broadcast ssid.

Does it work on any wifi? Try going to a coffee shop and see if you have the same thing.

How to enable wifi N on Fascinate??

Hi guys! I have had the fascinate for quite awhile and never knew it was wifi "N" capable. My phone syncs fine with wifi G, but how do you connect to N? When I go to the wifi options it just sees my "G" network. Before you say have you check to see if the "N" network is being broad casted it already is. My xbox 360 and laptop are sync to the N wifi network. I would assume someone has figured this out because the specs shows wifi 802.11 b/g/n networks. Thanks dudes.
I only run an N network and mine connects no problem didn't do anything fancy. I am using wpa2 instead of wep don't believe that would make a difference since usually anything that will do wpa2 will do wep lol. double check make sure you N network is broad casting at 2.4Mhz range and not 5Mhz. since you say you have both I'm just assuming you have a dual band router and that might the problem. again just assuming there, but the fascinate will not pick up the 5Mhz range

Here is my current wifi settings. I tried disabling just the "G" network and leaving the "N" on. When I rescanned for wifi networks from my fascinate it didn't detect the "N" wifi. Is there a setting some where I'm missing on the phone or in my settings?

Nevermind I think I answered my own question with your previous answer lol. I have the g and n wifi named as "b33zuG" and that's how it shows on my phone. My screenshot for 2.4 shows as b/g/n. But if this is the case how do I know it's the true N network and not G since there both in the same 2.4 bracket?
if is in the 300mbs mode then it's broadcasting the N network because G only maxes out at 54mbs.

also I have the high end 300-300 netgear router and if I enable the 5mhz n-network it won't let me run N on the 2.4 st the same time only lets me either do G 2.4 N 5 our just N on 2.4 so maybe when you have both on your only getting the G?
SC2.8 WP7 Revolution
Yea, I have a dual band router at home and the phone's wifi scan only detects the G.
I have different SSIDs set up and my N network isnt listed...
I'm gonna put it in manually when i get home tonight and see if it does anything but I'm interested if anyone has a solid answer for this
Our phones wont do N in the 5Ghz spectrum, only 2.4Ghz.
I've connected to N at work and it drains my battery faster than anything else that I do to my phone. I am curious if anyone else had experienced this. G is great for battery life

My wifi N network seems yo run fine on my fascinate. Although its mostly on a charger so I can't comment on battery life

Anyone get tethering to work under ICS?

Seems like under honeycomb I could connect to my phones tether easily. Did the upgrade last night and now I can't connect. Just sits at obtaining IP address.
I was running a older 2.x build of it, so went to the homepage and tried 5 different versions on 3.x beta.x and none of them helped the situation.
Any others?
sh*t sorry, I don't know how I was in this forum! Please move!
I just moved and my cable and internet has not been hooked up yet so I have been using my phone to tether and it works everytime. I stopped usuing wi fi tehter app it doesnt seem to work anymore. I have been using open garden and it worked last night to update my transformer. Then it connected as soon as it rebooted with no problems.
#1 Love when people post in the wrong place!
#2 When they ask to have it moved afterwards!

open garden doesnt work either... the prime doesnt even see it as a wifi network
I've been using Bluetooth tethering and it still works after the ICS upgrade.
how do you get bluetooth tethering to work? I can't get it...
n/m i got it using open garden, and it opened up the sprint hotspot thingie and I had to check enable...which is weird...but it works.
I guess screw WIFI tether
I have a rooted Verizon 4G Samsung Charge. Was using Open Garden Wifi with no problem since I received my Transformer Prime.
Wifi Analyzer on Prime finds the wifi network but It doesnt show up at all in Wireless and Network settings. FML
---------- Post added at 11:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:13 AM ----------
For those using Open Garden Wifi, what frequency channel, transmit power, and LAN network settings are you using?
I have even tried Barnacle now with no luck~!
I have a Droid 2 with mobile hotspot feature. Using Auto-Tether makes it real simple and quick to switch it on remotely from the TP and connect. I've had no problem under HC and still no problem under ICS.

Mobile data is not getting connected in S3. Please Help!!!

Hi all,
Mobile data (2G) is not getting connected properly in my new Samsung galaxy S3 (ICS). I use Tata Docomo.
As soon as I restart my phone I am able to connect to mobile data for sometime and then if I disconnect it or if it automatically disconnects then I am not able to connect to mobile data after that. The "E" symbol does not appear on notification bar. Its like just one time using of mobile data per restart of the phone. So I need to restart the phone if i want to connect again
Even after selecting "Use Packet Data" in settings, the status of "Mobile network state" is "Disconnected" under the Settings -> About device -> Status. But WiFi works without any problem.
I have installed the internet setting which was sent through message by Tata Docomo.
Please help me what could be the problem here.
I am feeling so sad for not being able to use internet properly in my new phone :'(
Please find the screenshot below,

Wong thread dude. Q&A
If you have stock and your packet data is on without use 2g networks only, they may have given you some wrong settings..
Failing that do a factory reset to see if that works

You would never get an answer here coz thats a known issue with Tata Docomo and not your handset. Tata Docomo at regular intervals disable your Cellular Data which they says is to ensure your data pack does not get depleted due to your leaving ur data on by mistake. Silly huh? More interesting it does not get automatically connected to the network
However i have found fix for it. Just select Network Type as Automatic(2G+3G). Wheneve data gets disconnected, If your using 2G, select 3g Network of Docomo and then select 2G network of Docomo. And vice versa if your using 3G. It should start your data after 10-15 seconds of doing the above 2 steps.

Removing proxy

I am having issues removing proxy on my phone. Whenever I used the stock internet browser or firefox and go to whatismyip.com, it detects a proxy. I did not include any proxy address and stuff in WiFi settings but I did install Tigervpns VPN, Vpn one click and Orbot recently and used them all. I however, uninstalled them as I found them of no use to me. I would really like to get rid of the proxy and I know that its not a setting on my network as when I go to whatismyip.com on my computer it doesn't detect any proxy. I suspect it might be the VPN changer apps I installed though, if anyone has any idea how to remove it, please help me. Thanks in advance.

It would probably help if you post the name or IP address of the proxy
Im not sure what the name is but the ip
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
That IP belongs to your carrier.
Edit - And if you'd done an nslookup, you would have found that out for yourself.
So theres no way to get rid of it?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Your carrier is obviously routing traffic through that proxy. Talk to them; ask them if there's a way you can get connectivity on your phone without going thru the proxy. If they say no, there's nothing you can do about it (other than change carriers).
Or...Find out if there's other APN settings for your carrier. There may be another APN that doesn't use the proxy (like Vodafone in Australia).

I have the same problem, But i noticed that while both my Bluetooth and WiFi show nothing found, they both still have MAC addresses and i get notifications about open WiFi networks that i can't see. Oh, and my other Samsung phone cannot see my LG L9 through Bluetooth.
Any 1 have any ideas? I even went so far as to replace the entire antenna flex with a new one. no change. ( I work in a cell phone repairshop Ironically enough)
not working: wifi, BT, radio (P768)

May be this hardware problem.
I tryed flash some KDZ with LGFlasthTool2014 with no resolves.

Maybe flash the radios for your models? I know lots of bootloader tutorials have the p769 and metro p769 radio.
